It's Just One Of Those Things
Incognito Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Good morning heartache
I though that I had lost you
But here you are again

Good morning heartache
I guess that you wont leave me
It will always be this way
I should confess that I once loved you
I thought I knew you
A love so close without condition
Now in remission

Between my heart and my mind
Loop is turnin'
Every word and everything you said

It's just one of those things
One of those things
It's just one of those things

Good morning heartache
What brought you back here to me?
What made you come again?

Good morning heartache
I wish that I could tell you
That I am glad to see you but I ain't

Remember how I once held you
What happened to you?
Tell me do and please be true
A love so close without condition
Now in remission

Between my heart and my mind
Loop is turnin'
Every word and everything you said

It's just one of those things
One of those things
It's just one of those things

And there are stories in our eyes
Chapters of our lives, we can't disguise
They will sometimes disappear




Day turns into night
But morning comes again they reappear

Overall Meaning

The song "It's Just One of Those Things" by Incognito is a soulful and emotional piece that speaks to the heartache that someone feels when they are haunted by a love that they thought they had moved on from. The song takes on a confessional tone, with the opening lines of "Good morning heartache / I thought that I had lost you / But here you are again" setting the stage for the rest of the lyrics. The singer is speaking to their own heartache, acknowledging that it is a persistent presence in their life that they cannot escape.


As the song goes on, the singer expresses their conflicted feelings about their heartache. On the one hand, they are frustrated and wish that they could tell their heartache to leave them alone: "Good morning heartache / I wish that I could tell you / That I am glad to see you but I ain't." On the other hand, there is a sense of longing for what they once had: "Remember how I once held you / What happened to you? / Tell me do and please be true / A love so close without condition / Now in remission."


The song climaxes with the lines "And there are stories in our eyes / Chapters of our lives, we can't disguise / They will sometimes disappear / Day turns into night / But morning comes again they reappear." These lines capture the cyclical nature of heartache, how it can sometimes fade away but will always come back eventually, and how our stories and experiences are written into our very beings, no matter how hard we try to hide them.


Overall, "It's Just One of Those Things" is a beautifully written and performed song that captures the complex emotions of heartache and longing.

Tony & Maysa, what a combination! Brilliant song.

@LMmccallL57

So true. These days, it's hard to find such talent getting the recognition they deserve when it comes to air-play. I suppose if you have satellite radio, you may be able to pick up such tunes, but not so much on what I call "standard" radio. I love music that brings a great feeling about and music that can be shared with all generations. That's the type of music Incognito brings. :)

@krassimirkirilov2904

The world woul'd be an empty space without this "chef d'oeuvre".....

@danlboom2092

These guys been going strong from the 90s and still going,with no signs of slowing down. "It's just one of those things".Another FINE song by Bluey and crew... Incognito. Pure , uncut, Prime rib for the soul.

@FAMUCHOLLY

One of the things I love about Incognito. They create songs that can and WILL put you in a mood... to groove, dance, chill, or bop your head. REALLY good stuff...

@ericabrown4838

I can never get enough of Incognito!! It's just one of those things.

@madmuppet8039

Still listening in 2021, quality band, quality tune !!

@giuseppemonteleone308

La musica degli Incognito fa ... sognare, ti proietta in posti incantati che so una spiaggia al tramonto, immensi!!!

@brunas.2549

Concordo.... Gli Incognito, per me, sono il massimo livello dell'acid jazz. Che darei per vederli in concerto!!

@giuseppemonteleone308

Ciao Bruna gli Incognito come Paul Hardcastle fanno un tipo di musica che a me fa sognare sopratutto il secondo quando ascolti uno dei suoi brani, tutt bellissimi, chiudi gli occhi e si aprono scenari incredibili. Ciao.
